LIFT, A King's Approach to Business, with John and Martha King

John and Martha King’s use of technology and clear, simple, and fun teaching have made aviation knowledge more accessible to pilots throughout the world.Show more

After a dismal failure in a #business for which they did not have a passion, John and Martha King decided to relax and indulge their love of flying for a while. In the early 1970s, they began teaching flying to mark time while looking for a “serious business.” After teaching live seminars for over a decade, they put their courses on video and began to revolutionize the flight training industry.

For more than 40 years, King Schools has delivered many millions of courses to pilots in training. Through intimate video instruction, John and Martha King have taught more pilots than anyone in the history of #aviation—for many years teaching more than half the pilots in the United States learning to fly.
